The Parthenon and the temple of Athena, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the major attraction of Athens. The Erechtheion displays the statues of the female Caryatids, though the original statues have been replaced by copies because of air pollution; the originals are in the new Museum. On the southern slopes of the Acropolis lies the Odeon of Herodes Atticus, a Roman theatre with room for as many as 5,000 spectators. It is used during the annual Athens Festival for world-class ballet and music performances. The Theatre of Dionysus lies beside Herodes Atticus, and almost all the tragedies and comedies of Ancient Greece were written for this theatre.

The nearby Barossa Valley is Australia’s wine-producing heartland, and this centre offers interactive exhibitions explaining the whole winemaking process, along with wines to taste and buy. In addition, the surrounding wine yards are just beautiful to see and photograph.

A commercial area since the early 1800s, Water Square with the building of Albert George Market have for centuries been a lively scene of trade in the history of Falmouth. The famous clock tower is an integral part of the historic quarter, which can be enjoyed by browsing the crafts of local vendors or lounging at one of the many bars nearby.

Part of Plaka, Anafiotika is a scenic neighbourhood of Athens on the northern slope of the Acropolis. Part of this area was destroyed in the 1950s for archaeological research. Today, there are only 45 old houses remaining, on the little unnamed streets from Stratonos to the Acropolis rock. It's a great example of the typical Cycladic architecture that gives visitors the feel of Greek islands in the heart of the city.
